twisting wires in PRO/E wildfire2

[caddes]

I am using Wildfire2.


My latest project requires twisting 3 wires


along a curve (trajectory) like a helical sweep


along a curved feature. I can do it straight....


but could use some help on what I am describing.

You may try using the Datum Curve toolbar

Insert>Model Datum>Curve, and create curve From Equation.

Thanks for the good advise from all of you.


I found the answer. The "twisted pair" file in the archives


demonstrates what I need. Same principle as all others
